Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord Chapter 189 The First Saint

189 The First Saint
“Carla, you’ve done well! Just leave the rest to us!”
A voice rang from Carla’s pendant.
Something strange was happening. Carla’s body was restless. The flames around her surged.
“Ahhh!” Carla screamed. She was in pain.
“Carla!” shouted the Thorn Fairy. She was trying hard to pull herself up with her vines, but they kept burning. However, she didn’t seem as worried about her own situation as much as she was worried about her Lord.
Xu Yuan didn’t intervene. He just watched quietly.
“No!!!” cried Carla. “What are you doing?”
Carla felt like she was going mad. Her powers surged, but it felt like she was losing her sanity. Her body expanded. It terrified her. If it kept expanding like this, she might explode.
Everyone within reach, whether it was Xu Yuan or the Thorn Fairy, would die.
“Use your destructive power to awaken the beast! This is an opportunity for you. You should feel honored as a member of the organization,” said the voice from the pendant.
Carla was shocked. “First Saint, what do you mean? This is not the plan!”
The person speaking via the pendant was the First Saint of the Dark Screen.
“This wasn’t the plan!” said Carla.
They had planned to use a special method to awaken the beast. Carla was supposed to steal the mythical beast’s power for herself and wake the beast. Then, she could control it.
If a destructive power was used to wake the mythical beast without anyone to control it, the consequences would be disastrous. Nobody could stop the beast if it wasn’t shackled and controlled by someone.
They had a plan to awaken and seal the beast. So why were they changing the plan now? Carla was about to ask when the voice became enraged.
“Foolish girl!” said the First Saint. “From the beginning, the plan was this. Our only goal is to wake Lord Lan Yu! You think any stupid person can control Lord Lan Yu?”
Xu Yuan listened quietly. Carla and Thorn Fairy became agitated. They knew about the plan, followed it at every step, and they had waited to awaken the beast. But they didn’t want it to wreak havoc.
It seemed they both had been fooled by the organization. The First Saint only had the intention to awaken Lord Lan Yu. The contemptuous voice didn’t care about anything else. The First Saint was a fanatic!
Xu Yuan gathered as much from the short conversation. The First Saint sounded like a fanatic who despised all living beings and wanted them to suffer.
“Ahhhhh!!!” screamed Carla. She was almost at her limit.
She would explode soon, and the destructive power would kill the Thorn Fairy and release the mythical beast into the world! She didn’t have much time left.
Carla looked at Xu Yuan pleadingly. “Please, kill me!” she said. “Hurry! Kill me before I explode, and the destructive power awakens the mythical beast!”
Carla begged him. She couldn’t live with the betrayal. Since she was going to die anyway, she didn’t want to give the First Saint the satisfaction of her death being a success for awakening a disaster.
Carla had accepted her death. She now only had one request. She wanted to die on her own terms. She didn’t want the First Saint to succeed.
The First Saint laughed. “Kill you? That poor hero can’t even save herself from falling into the lava. How will she muster the strength to kill you?”
Carla was in so much pain that her mind went blank for a moment. She didn’t know what the First Saint was saying. The First Saint was referring to the Thorn Fairy!
‘The First Saint can’t see the black dragon?’ wondered Carla.
“Please, black dragon, kill me!” Carla pleaded. “I won’t let his plan be a success.”
“Black dragon?” said the First Saint in surprise. “Where did this black dragon come from? Carla, are you trying to trick me? Do you not see that there is no point to your whining?”
Carla was puzzled. The First Saint didn’t seem to sense the existence of Xu Yuan.
‘Is it because the black dragon is far away for the First Saint to sense his existence through the pendant? Or is it because the black dragon can mask himself to escape observation?’
After seeing what Xu Yuan would do, Carla was more inclined to believe the latter. If that was true, it would be so easy for Xu Yuan to impede the First Saint’s plan!
Cara Looked at Xu Yuan. He stared back at her, unmoved. Xu Yuan seemed indifferent about the problem at hand.
Carla fumbled in her pockets and took something out.
“Here! You can take this,” she said as she threw something at him.
Xu Yuan reached out and grabbed it. It was the Competition Gem.
“Kill me,” said Carla. “And please save her!” She pointed at the Thorn Fairy.
The Thorn Fairy was trying her best to create more vines to pull herself up the pillar. However, the vines kept burning away. She was getting closer and closer to the lava!
Xu Yuan shook his head. “This is not enough. With this gem, I can only fulfill your request of ending your life. To save her, I want something else.”
The First Saint’s voice was agitated. “Who is it? Who can actually block themselves from my observation?”
